I am not sure if this happens frequently or if it is even possible, a 360 switchup WITHOUT a kink or assistance such as a flat down or something in the feature that would help you pop. Yeah I searchbarred and only found threads selling xbox's and help with their first 3

If so could someone show me a video or something, either front or blind by the way

I have 179s and I can do front 3 switch ups on flat boxes all the time... Its really easy. My friend did a front 3 swap on a down rail a few times too, they are not hard at all.

in my opinion, when you have smaller ski than you, they are small.

Well your opinion is flawed then. Skill, intended use and weight contribute to ski length as much, if not more, than height.

I was probably 5' 9' when i got my 166s last year. I feel like the guy sold me small skis. So i'm 5' 11" now, and I feel like I got ripped off

that is so sick!
Now they just need some style and they're ready to go pro.

I'm excited to go winching as soon as we get some snow here in town. So sick hauling ass up a double-kink handrail.

Believe it or not you can do them on flat boxes.... Just hop on from one side, scissor hard as fuck and pop a 3.
